The area is part of the traditional region of Styria. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Drava Statistical Region.^[2]

A Late Roman settlement, the Ančnik hill fort, has been excavated near the present day settlement. It includes well-preserved foundations of a 1.5 metre thick defence wall, traces of a forge and residential buildings, all dating from the 4th century AD.^[3]
